Written Corpora

The NE3L project (Named Entities 3 Languages) consisted in annotating several corpora with different languages with named entities. Text format data were extracted from newspapers and deal with various topics. 3 different languages were annotated: Arabic, Chinese and Russian.
For this project, 5 named entity categories were taken into account: Person, Place, Organisation, Time and Amount. Each language was concerned only by a subset of these categories, i.e. Arabic was marked up with Time and Amount tags, as well as Russian, whereas Chinese was marked up with Person, Place and Organisation tags.
The Russian corpus contains 75,784 words coming from articles extracted from ?Izvestia? newspaper, and published in 1995.
